If you can do that, why do you need 10 rounds while sitting in the comforts of your home??

Why don't most men want hello Kitty socks? Do you really need to ask? Some women like fast cars and motorcycles and guns, many like romance novels and bead bath soaps. Just the way things are.

Quick! You've been instantaneously teleported into your living room where a burglary is in progress by 15 heavily armed MS-13 gang members! And your double barrel shotgun is in your purse in the bedroom! What do you do now, gun-fondling gun fondler!?!!!!111!one!??

According to ChupaChihuahua you would be more likely to shoot yourself in the foot or accidentally kill your children!

Gunz Baaaaaaad!....herrderrderrrrrr!

Don't forget, when you arrive, you are in the middle of them and they all have their guns pointed at your head.....

I mean that's the way all robberies and rapes start...we've been told so!!

I still find it interesting that all of a sudden previously quiet, law abiding, hard working people who own guns have suddenly become the bad guys in this conversation. Not the gang bangers. Not the ones who get their slimy little hands on an illegal gun and then shoot down little kids playing in the street (time after time) on the south side of Chicago. The law abiding citizens who have never broken the law and who jumped through whatever hoops were required by their state to legally own a firearm. THEY are the ones who are being ridiculed and belittled and against whom yet more battle lines are being drawn.

I find it interesting that so-called progressives stomp their feet and declare that there is a war being waged on women, but when it comes to women who legally choose to own a firearm for their own protection, they are also ridiculed and belittled. Self-aware women need to ask themselves where the true war lies.

But we're not talking about welfare, or food stamps, or Muslims, or gays or abortion. We're talking about legal gun ownership by law abiding adult citizens. Because we own something progressives don't like, we are all fair game.

The hypocripsy and agenda-driven opportunistic posturing, is stunning and cannot be ignored.

Why does anyone have to explain why they need anything or if they don't need it why they want it?

LOL.. I guess I'd invite them (in my most polite southern twang) to sit down a spell, take their shoe's off, offer them a bit of shine or a beer, because apparently that's what we ladies are supposed to do when threatened by the bad guys...

Because people are afraid of what they don't know and must control the unexplained.....

They don't even have to take your gun from you. Unless it's permanently taped to your hand, you have superhuman speed, are on guard 24/7, and are one hell of a shot, you can be overpowered, whether you carry a gun, don't carry a gun, or have extra-special luck.

What it boils down to is being safe, not in carrying a gun as a rabbit's foot, hoping it bestows upon you some magical protection others don't have, or some impressive superhuman capacity to kill all perps.
